Custom BaseAdapter wont add new Data - Android

Custom BaseAdapter wont add new Data - Android

I have a custom baseadapter that creates comment boxes. Everything works
great on it until I want to add data. When I try to add the data it
deletes the previous data and adds the new data. How do I make it so it
keeps all the data? Is my Add method incorrect? Here is my baseadapter,
class CreateCommentLists extends BaseAdapter{
Context ctx_invitation;
String[] listComments;
String[] listNumbers;
String[] listUsernames;
public CreateCommentLists(String[] comments, String[] usernames,
String[] numbers, DashboardActivity context)
{
super();
ctx_invitation = context;
listComments = comments;
listNumbers = usernames;
listUsernames = numbers;
}
@Override
public int getCount() {
if(null == listComments)
{
return 0;
}
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return listComments.length;
}
@Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return listComments[position];
}
@Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return 0;
}
@Override
public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup
parent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
View v = null;
try
{
String inflater = Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE;
LayoutInflater li =
(LayoutInflater)ctx_invitation.getSystemService(inflater);
v = li.inflate(R.layout.list_item, null);
TextView commentView = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.listComment);
TextView NumbersView = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.listNumber);
TextView usernamesView = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.listPostedBy);
Button usernameButton =
(Button)v.findViewById(R.id.listUsernameButton);
Button numberButton = (Button)v.findViewById(R.id.listNumberButton);
commentView.setText(listComments[position]);
NumbersView.setText(listNumbers[position]);
usernamesView.setText(listUsernames[position]);
usernameButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),
ProfileActivity.class);
i.putExtra("usernameOfProfile",listUsernames[position]);
startActivity(i);
finish();
}
});
numberButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View arg0) {
Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),
ProfileActivity.class);
i.putExtra("NumberProfile",listNumbers[position]);
startActivity(i);
finish();
}
});
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
return v;
}
public void add(String[] comments, String[] usernames,
String[] numbers) {
listComments = comments;
listNumbers = usernames;
listUsernames = numbers;
}
public int getCount1() {
if(null == listComments)
{
return 0;
}
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return listComments.length;
}
public Object getItem1(int position) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return listComments[position];
}
public long getItemId1(int position) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return 0;
}
public View getView1(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup
parent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
View v = null;
try
{
String inflater = Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE;
LayoutInflater li =
(LayoutInflater)ctx_invitation.getSystemService(inflater);
v = li.inflate(R.layout.list_item, null);
TextView commentView = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.listComment);
TextView NumbersView = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.listNumber);
TextView usernamesView = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.listPostedBy);
Button usernameButton =
(Button)v.findViewById(R.id.listUsernameButton);
Button numberButton = (Button)v.findViewById(R.id.listNumberButton);
commentView.setText(listComments[position]);
NumbersView.setText(listNumbers[position]);
usernamesView.setText(listUsernames[position]);
usernameButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),
ProfileActivity.class);
i.putExtra("usernameOfProfile",listUsernames[position]);
startActivity(i);
finish();
}
});
numberButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View arg0) {
Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),
ProfileActivity.class);
i.putExtra("NumberProfile",listNumbers[position]);
startActivity(i);
finish();
}
});
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
return v;
}
}
Setting the adapter:
final CreateCommentLists mycmlist = new CreateCommentLists(comments,
usernames, numbers, DashboardActivity.this);
lstComments = (ListView)findViewById(android.R.id.list);
lstComments.setAdapter(mycmlist);
This is what how I call the add method,
mycmlist.add(comments,usernames,plates);
mycmlist.notifyDataSetChanged();
